D. North

Respuesta :

So option )D is the answer sense it is pointing directly at the negative charge!

Answer: B. South

Explanation:

An electric field can be defined as the amount of electric force per unit charge. The direction of the electric field can be determined by the motion of a positive test charge under the electric force.

The direction of electric field is radially outward for a positive charge and radially inward for a negative charge. Thus, for the electric field points toward SOUTH at a position directly south of a positive charge.
